This video is dedicated to "George Iatrou" who supplied this kit.
I really enjoyed this project, it was one of those "can I do this?" builds. I learned a lot along the way, and was very glad to build another one of [...]
This is another testament to my bad choices! 30 months ago, when I still lived in the UK, I very happily surveyed the contents of the highly praised Eduard Spitfire MkIX profipack. It was due to be my second build upon returning to the [...]
Hello everyone. This is my first post, since I just landed.
I usually only build on 1/72, but I wanted to try to give this kit a go.
At present there are brands that manufacture Spits with a higher level, but otherwise it would never have [...]

This was a very [...]

There are no decals on this model whatsoever as I wanted to try HGW's wet transfer stencils and I can say that they are a great product.
All the national [...]
Spitfire Mk. XIVe TZ138. This aircraft built in 1945 at Aldermanston and shipped to Canada in 1945 and was used for cold weather testing with the Winter Experimental Establishment (WEE) Flight in western Canada from early 1946 to July [...]
Hot off the workbench is my version of the Tamiya 1/72 Spitfire Mk. Vb in the markings of 243 squadron. As usual for a Tamiya kit, it went together with no problems. The decals of the code letters have soft edges to my eye. That would be [...]
